Tony Stark definitely is the sarcastic, snarky superhero you want on your side.

Kari Byron might work as Nurse Christine Chapel.

It is Jimmy Doohan's son.

Beowulf is in Old English [find Seamus Heaney's Beowulf, Bilingual Edition to see Old English and its Modern translation], not Coleridge (nor Shakespeare). Coleridge is more likely replicating late Middle to Early Modern English, think The Canterbury Tales of Chaucer, those were late Middle English. If you want…

How does something like this not make the cut? Sulu is clearly kicking more ass than Kirk here, plus, that retractile folded sword is awesome. Hell, any Klingon Bat'leth scene could have worked, even Worf's Mek'leth battle against the Borg in Star Trek: First Contact could have worked.

I think a qualifier was needed with that sentence. But, yes, let the slash-fic begin. I hereby declare the inaugural games of the 2012 Slash-Fiction Olympiad open! Good Luck Competitors!

Considering that there are ~210 Grimm Stories, I would say that there is enough there to work with, re-purpose, mix and match, and in general play around with. So, they are fine, seeing as Star Trek: The Next Generation had 178 episodes and 7 seasons, 210 stories is enough to provide material for the show to rival…

However, too much emotion or a clothing accessory to help convey emotion might get in the way of his police work. Plus, he has his Blutbad friend Monroe and his partner Detective Griffin to do all the emoting for him. Someone has to be the slightly unemotional center who can look at things in somewhat of a logical…

Neither, the lead in The Cape is the right answer.

So, can I mention Kant and his Categorical Imperative, the three formulations thereof? Because that was inspiring when I learned about it, I love the Kantian method of reasoning morality and ethics, without a religious basis. As an objective and reason wielding Catholic, I love that.

One does not simply walk into Nyiragongo. Seriously does anyone else get the Mordor vibe from that? Tanah Lot looks like a Vulcan or Bajoran sanctuary. And, yes, even a Catholic such as myself can see the potential in the Vatican for fantasy purposes.

Exactly, I would not think you would make your statement exclusionary, you just gave physicists as an example, I just gave another. But out of the sciences biologists and physicists get hit especially hard by science sensationalism, we have to deal with a lot more idiots it seems. To a smaller extent the chemists,…

Resisting a nerve pinch, yes, is almost a superpower in the Trek Universe. Though, I would like to see Q nerve pinched, or the attempt made, or Q performing one himself, albeit completely unnecessary for the character.

Attention grabbing "science headlines" don't just make the physicists cringe, think of what biologists have to deal with. We in the biosciences fields tend to cringe at just about everything attention-grabbing headline even tangentially biology related. Debates over evolution and genetically modified foods make us…

That caught my attention as well. Very few non Vulcans can perform the Nerve Pinch [Jean-Luc Picard, Data, Seven of Nine, Odo, and Jonathan Archer], and even fewer can resist a nerve pinch [Gary Seven, Androids, and the Vian]. Picard and Archer were able to do so only after an intensive mind meld, Seven presumably…

I have often wondered why there are not more sci-fi dealing with cetaceans. I think a cetacean apocalypse story or series in the style of Planet of the Apes might be interesting, or at the least bizarre, yet cult following entertaining. I welcome our cetacean overlords.

I may not be a Star Wars fan an any capacity, but I think for those who are, I believe a Jar Jar Binks Trophy Head is in order, seeing the trophy head concept was an idea for merchandise.

This seems more Sauron or Nazgul Witch King of Angmar, than Batman. I see more One Ring to rule them all, rather than a tangential relation to a Lantern Ring.

Considering that ~37.14% of the document, 39 pages of 105 (pages 66-105), is a list of 800 different sources and references I am not sure what to think of this.

I was looking at this list specifically for Sybok. It is interesting to note that originally the producers wanted Sean Connery to play Sybok, but ultimately, obviously, they could not, but Sha Ka Ree is named in his honor.
